Conversations with Domina

No matter where you live- you pass dozens to hundreds of folks every day. What’s their deal? Who are they?

“Conversations with Domina” is an interview series where I speak to people and we cover personal aspects of their sexual identity. It is my hope you may hear some of these personal accounts and feel some relation to your own experience. Truth is we’re more connected than we often realize. We all have very different experiences based on our backgrounds, lives, desires and worldviews and I wanted to capture some real talk from real folks and get into the nitty gritty.

The first video premiered in October of 2017 and in this first season we have covered heteroflexibility and race, trans experience and visibility, Bi-erasure, Queer experience, Asexuality, alternative relationship structures, sex after parenthood and the social construct of virginity and being a “late bloomer”.

A second season will launch in 2018. We will be going global with new material from interviewees from four different countries….I hope to continually expand that reach as I move forward with the project to showcase a variety of experiences from folks which span a wide range of cultural, religious and personal backgrounds.

If you would like to be included in the conversation series please feel free to reach out to me at info@dominafranco.com.

Episode 6

People often dismiss or simply forget about Asexuality as a sexual orientation and that even asexuality also works on a spectrum...Rachel, a graduate student of Human Sexuality Studies at Widener University and Cuddlist professional, gives us some of her time to discuss her experience with coming to understand her asexuality and her upcoming projects around the subject matter.

Episode 5

Kyria and Isake of the podcast "Cheers and Queers" chat with me about the boundaries between and around romantic and platonic love, dating and ethical non-monogamy....and we drink delicious fizzy booze throughout. Don't miss the amazingness that is this duo. The most recent episode of""Cheers and Queers" can be found at Cheers & Queers.

Episode 4

Sex is a complicated enough thing when offspring aren't in the mix....but what happens to your sex life both during and after pregnancy? Rachel and Wally, a married couple with a toddler take some time to chat with me about their experience both before their daughter arrived and after her birth.

Episode 3

Angela Cobb, local NYC Comic, talks about being a "late bloomer" and experiencing sex for the first time a little later in life....and during Hurricane Sandy no less! We discuss what virginity even means, why people think it's SO important and why it seems to illicit a sense of shame for some folks.

Episode 2

Domina talks with Wren, the fantastic artist and mastermind behind Purevile about sexual orientation and what it means for him as a man who identifies as gay but has dated women. How queer is queer? When are you queer enough? (Hint: If you're a little queer then you're queer. Celebrate it!)
